Along with raising 5 daughters, Lois worked as a secretary at McClain Chevrolet, in the library at Chippewa Hills schools and as a courier for the MOISD.

She was active in the Barryton United Methodist Church, a member of the American Legion Auxiliary, and volunteered as a Rocking Chair Reader for elementary children. Lois enjoyed crossword puzzles, gardening, and reading. She began flying with her father at a young age and was only a few hours short of earning her pilots license. She was a fantastic cook and her family will miss her baked Rice Krispie chicken and homemade noodles. She was famous for her orange jello salad! Lois was an accomplished quilter and seamstress, making quilts for her family as well as many lap robes and layettes for charity. She was also competitive (beating her grandchildren in board games every chance she got) and had an adventurous spirit. Later in life, she enjoyed spending winters in Oklahoma where she became involved in church activities, developed many friendships, and was a fan at grandchildrens sporting events.
